Athletes that you can't believe get paid (and the over-rated ones)

Phil Jackson

Worthless

We'll see if he can coach when he doesn't have the dominating talent.

Maybe he'll have a new truckload of books to hand out this year for the new arrivals, Malone, Payton, and whoever replaces Koby. LMAO

I gotta go with A-Rod....

Nobody, and I mean NOBODY, deserves 250 million. You better hit 75 HR and drive in 200 for that kind of money. That payout is killing the Texas Rangers.

Since bgold brought up the worthless Darren Dreifort......

Chan Ho Park!! Thank God the Dodgers signed Nomo for 5 Mil instead of the 15 Mil the Rangers gave him:nono:

Kevin Appier.released by Angels, making about 11 million this year and guaranteed about the same for next.What would Ted Williams be making?But at least I think he would be putting fans into home and away stadiums.does anyone buy a ticket to see A-Rod play?

just my opinion, but calling alex rodriguez overrated is ridiculous.

every day, people hope he fails just so they can can say "see- this is whats wrong with baseball. see- nobody is worth that kind of money"

and every day, the guy goes out and gets it done, putting up amazing numbers and hitting the shit outta the ball.

of course nobody is truly "worth" 250 million, but if there ever WAS anyone, it would be a-rod.

The Frig still gets paid for being fat:shrug:

He's a nice guy and all but he got his ring almost 20 friggen years ago, disappeared, and came back fatter.

Does F'n pay per view events for big coin

gman-

speaking in terms of salary compared to production, i gotta disagree with you about arod...im not saying that he sucks...i even think he is one of the top 5 players in the game today....BUT....strictly loooking at his salary, he is overrated....or maybe a better word would be overvalued.....the rangers could have had him for 150 million...leaving 100 mil to spend on a pitching staff....unless you are so dominating that you can singlehandedly carry your team on your back, you do not deserve to make more money than entire teams combined. Even Barry Bonds, the best player in the last 30 years, is not good enough to carry his entire team on his back....no way he deserves to make the money he does, so in my eyes, he is overrated.
